How much should i be looking to pay to have my wheels done white?
do i just take the wheels to the powdercoaters or do you have to do some prep work on them before they will take then
im thinking white wheels with blue rim tape will look very good

Re: Powdercoating wheels
up to £50 a wheel for it to be blasted and then powder coated ,
make sure you take them somewhere that do bike stuff as up dont want some areas coated (disc face and threads/bearing seats .

Re: Powdercoating wheels
you'll need to remove the wheel bearings. keep your inner spacers safe and don't forget to put them back in when you fit new bearings. Disc mounting face needs to be masked aswell as where the bearings go and the threads for the disc bolts, have a correct size tap to hand to give the threads a quick run through to make sure all is ok. best place to take them is to someone who knows bike stuff and will do it right.

Re: Powdercoating wheels
Just mask it off, then screw in some old M6 bolts blank off the thread holes.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
